2 Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord March 25, 2018 [Christ Jesus] humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Philippians 2:8 March 18, 2018 To be reported in the next Bulletin. How is a parish pastoral council formed? A four-step process is employed to form the Parish Pastoral Council. This process includes prayer, education, discernment, and commitment. Step 1: Prayer: Each meeting of the council begins and ends with a prayer experience as we focus on our baptismal call to build the kingdom of God. We ask everyone to pray for wisdom and openness for our parishioners and our pastor. Step 2: Education: All parishioners learn more about the purpose and norms of Parish Councils through materials provided by the pastor. All parishioners interested in the Parish Pastoral Council are invited to an Information Meeting along with those who want to learn more about serving on the council. Anyone can come or recommend someone to come to this meeting. Step 3: Discernment: A Discernment Meeting is held for those who attended the Information Meeting, are open to serving on the council and are invited by the pastor. The people in attendance consider the gifts and talents of each person and discern who is being called by the Holy Spirit to serve. Anyone wishing to be considered for discernment must attend the Information Meet. Step 4: Commitment: The final step to the process is the commissioning of new council members during the weekend Masses. Then the work of the council begins with an orientation of new members, followed by gathering information about the needs and desires of the parishioners so that the council can undertake the development of recommendations for short-term and longterm plans.
